Rocky VI? Why?
Someone stop this guy. Please. No wonder Americans don't go to the movies anymore. This sounds like a "straight to video" venture.

whatever. lets start a blog on gas prices.
I think Sly is 59 or 60 yoa now.
How do you fight and hold on to your walker at the same time ???
8:58
how do you fight and hold on to your walker? Ask the guys in 022 or the 10 sector of 008. i'm still trying to figure out how they get in/ out of their cars without assistance.
Sad thing is, Sly is in better physical shape at 60 then about 99% of our Department! Better financial shape too!ha ha
They are casting the roles for this film right now in L.A.
When I met actor Richard Crena a few years ago in Phoenix. I asked him when there would do another Rambo movie. Crena said with a smile Sly is too old now. Of course he's never too old to play the Colonel!
I think we need to wait until we see the film. According to the actor’s breakdown I read this morning, Rocky's age is a big part of the story line. Sly can still do any project he wants to in Hollywood so I suspect that there is some kind of magic in the script.
I’ll come back and post that breakdown for you boys and girls…
